Brezec is WAY more useful to this current team. We already got Flip Murray, Lindsey Hunter, Arron Afflalo, Rodney Stuckey and Jarvis Hayes. Primoz may be a stiff but he's a 7 foot stiff that plays center.

I don't see how a guy that got relegated behind Kapono and Delfino will find any time here. And thats why he wanted out.

LOL! I took a step back. Its good to see that he's contributing well. At the time it looked like we overloaded on G's at the expense of big men but the addition of Ratliff makes this team look really good. Way to go Joe!

dixon > murray in my book but all those changes didn't happen at the time.

Not quite sure why so much negativity about Juan D. This was an excellent pickup for Detroit going into the playoffs. Every championship team needs a veteran backup guard.

Love Stuckey, but you're not sure what you're going to get because of his youth at this point. Lindsey will be more effective defensively, but Juan is a combo that CAN run the point, and can score like nobodys business.

I think with this veteran squad and the chemistry that we have, Juan will flourish. He was spectacular and poised last night...granted it was the clippers (lol)

AM I SENSING SOME DARVIN LOVE UP IN HERE????? Hell yeah we need DARVIN!!!!!! I've been saying this for 2 years now, WE NEED D-HAM!!!!! Darv is the best 15th man cheerleader in the leagues history. You see that when Prozac Brezec tried out for that spot we traded him........You can not stop the Spirit of Darvin, you can only hope to contain it!!!!!

bla, It was only a matter of time until articles like this started coming out. Joe D should tell him i brought on veterans for insurance NOT to play over the rookies (unless i'm wrong on Joe's motivations here).

AA is not 'fantastic' yet. At least not even in a slightly consistent manner.

I would say he is. He's consistently fantastic on defense. And has repeatedly shut down someone who was lighting CB/Rip up. I remember even in the Lakers game, Kobe trying to lose him, and then being like forget it, and passed the ball.

His offense is a WIP, althought i think his shot is alot better than he gets credit for.

I guess my point is he's better than Dixon, and better in terms of post-season play, yet is sitting. Why is it so hard for Flip to play a player for his defensive ability or realize that's more important?

If Dixon was giving us great production it would be different, but he's not. It's the same argument that applies to Hayes/Hermann.
